send them to me chipccod@yahoo.com if you like and ill see what i can do

I really hope all goes well and the results coming back from the biopsy will be nothing worrying. You are right to take pet insurance. In the long run it can save you money. Poor guy has lost the hair on his ears but I’m sure that after a while, when he’ll settle completely, they’ll grow back. He must love going outside with you twice daily!!
We’ll keep our 5 pairs of paws crossed for you and Tuck he looks lovely.

aww he is gorgeous, will keep my fingers crossed too.

Tuck is an absolute dote! Delighted to see that he has got such a good home! We r all keeping 3 sets of paws and 2 lots of fingers crossed that you get good news. Hopefully this may reassure you – we have 3 rescues (2 ex Ashton) and one of ours, Harry, a beardie collie cross has had a succession of lumps removed over the past couple of years. We had good news but I understand what you must be going through, we were up the walls with worry about him at the time. Cant remember the technical name for the lumps – basically there are harmless lumps and those not so harmless. Thankfully, Harry has (and still has) the former – they are basically fatty lumps. Some dogs are just more prone to them than others, however, Harry was very overweight at the time (we spoilt him rotten when he came out of kennels – long story!) and if the doggie is carrying a lot of weight, just as he fills out with the weight, the extra weight exacerbates / accelerates the speed at which the lumps grow. Needless to say, Harry was immediately put on a strict diet and he’s done really well, and continues to do so. Unfortunately, with Harry’s coat, the lumps arent so easily detected – I groom all of my 3 daily and I think its a brilliant habit to get into; it helps the dog feel closer to you and just as important, you notice any changes on their body straight away. I agree totally with you on the pet insurance, when we sent Harry’s lumps away to the lab and got the bill from the vet, between that and the actual removal of each lump (he had about 8 in total at the time), the bill wouldve been about 1,500 or thereabouts and t.g. we only had the 75 excess to pay. Unfortunately, more lumps can grow but its very important that you keep an eye on them, feel them (there should be movement in them and they shouldnt cause pain) and always get any lump checked out. Our friends ignored lump on their dog’s hind leg and it turned out to be cancerous, the dog lost his leg but thankfully has survived. I’m sure Tuck will be fine We had the results back from the lab within about 5 days (the vet understands that people are anxious and they will usually endeavour to do their best to get the results to you asap). Again, all crossed for your little man and do let us know how he is! (Sorry for rambling on, hope this helps!)
